Number Of Years

Thought I should draw your attention to an item in the Online Extravaganza which is in the 20% off section. This continues while stock lasts or until 28th November, whichever comes first. Large Number Framelits are one of the most used items in my kit. Hardly a week goes by when I don't use them for something and I really believe they're a must have item.

Instead of the usual $54.00 they are $43.20 until 28th November, and this Lego card is one you could make with them, with just a 'Happy Birthday' sentiment and a circle punch.

Boys Will Be Boys is a retired stamp set which had Lego as one of its stamps, so this set remains in my stash while I have 5 young grandsons to craft for (and with). For the Lego on the front of the card, I have cut squares and rectangles and punched small circles in the same colour to construct the blocks. This card was for the recent birthday of one of my grandsons, along with the Lego gift.

For this next card, I was creating a card for a lady turning 60. The Number Framelits cut a Dazzling Diamonds 6 & 0 for the centre of this floral display, from Timeless Love. It was fun to colour the flowers all different shades of pink. Another stamp from Timeless Textures is stamped over the background, and the sentiment comes from Cottage Greetings.

When making a card for such a significant birthday, I do use a few layers, including on the inside,I find it helps to balance the card a bit better, and just looks more luxurious.

A little close-up of those lovely numbers and the watercolouring.

I'm planning to put a small order through on Sunday night,so if you are wanting anything from these specials and can collect them from me, you can have free shipping. You just need to text 0417500681 or email me your order and let me know how you'll be paying by 7pm Sunday 27th November. You can also order online yourself at anytime of the day or night, remember to use the hostess code SVAGUCMK before checkout, and you'll receive a surprise from me in the mail.

Cheers, Rachel

Great Stampin' Up! Specials & Another Swap - Stampin' Up! ® Onstage Brisbane

When I headed of to Stampin' Up!® Onstage in Brisbane earlier this month I had a bundle of swap cards in my suitcase. I usually find that I can only make a dozen or so due to time constraints, so this year I used Touches of Texture with Cottage Greetings. 

Half a doiley in Watermelon Wonder was tucked in the top between a layer of basic black and Real Red which was embossed using the Tief Festive on page 11 of the Annual catalogue. The flowers were stamped in those colours too, and the centres coloured with gold Wink Of Stella. I do wish I'd taken a more detailed photo of this card, but I was in a mad rush right at the end to get everything finished!
